New build and renovation air conditioning in Bow
Renovations in Bow are the easiest jobs to make invisible, because the pipework goes in before the plaster. Many London homes are flats or tall terraces, where heat rises to the top floor and the bedrooms bear the brunt of a hot spell.
First-fix pipework in Bow extensions goes in while the joists and studs are open. Our London coverage takes in Bow, about 5 miles from central London. That includes the E3 postcode district.

Guide prices around Bow run from £495 to £1,195 per indoor position (first fix) including VAT. Prices here sit above the national middle, reflecting London labour rates and parking and access costs.

Guide prices show VAT at 20%. HMRC treats most fixed air conditioners and air-to-air heat pumps installed in homes as energy-saving materials, zero-rated until 31 March 2027 when we supply and fit them. If your installation qualifies, your quote shows 0% VAT and a lower price. Servicing, repairs, cleaning and controls are charged at 20%.
Working with your builder
First-fix work is about coordination, while the outdoor unit follows the normal planning rules for the property.
